}FocusMirror’s current privacy model applies exclusions on the device, uploads a strict metadata contract, and keeps the personal product scoped to the individual user.
Excluded apps and domains—and private title-keyword rules—are applied locally before upload.
The upload contract is designed for app names, permitted domains, time ranges, category hints, and context you explicitly provide—not titles or content.
The personal product is built for the person doing the work, not a manager dashboard or covert employee-observation surface.
Excluded activity is dropped before it can become an uploaded work record.
Tracking permission and AI processing permission are separate decisions. Declining AI does not remove the basic record.
The personal record is for the person doing the work—not a covert employee-observation surface.
